in the market for a pintail like a Ladera floyd or a Sector 9 Teahupoo (Haha) or something similar

gandang umaga, hapon at gabi po sa inyong lahat. bago lang po ako sa forum na ito. since 13 years old ay nag skate na ako using the mini board hangang nausuhan na ako ng bigger boards during the 90's. Nadiskubre kong mayroon palang longboarding sa pinas nung nakita ko ang mga vids and pics nila sir jay and sir chip childers and raims of eraserheads. Mas gusto ko ang downhill and tricks like nose manuals , slalom , power slides and some other trick na hindi babali ng decks haha. Im 33 years old now and i think mas ok sa age ko itong longboarding. Sa ngayun ay nag canvass po ako ng board at kung ang pag uusapan ay general longboarding and ang advise po ng kausap ko sa chillitees account sa youtube ay loaded dervish will fit my style. Well wala pa akong sapat na budget para bumili ng brandnew , nag search ako ng loaded dervish ay pumapatak pala ng more than 15 k ang brand new. Still im looking for a cheaper one not more than 10k. Hoping to skate with you guys soon : )

got a board less than 6k at bombproof robinson's ladera then 6k din sa randall trucks earthwing wheels sa skateofthenation.multiply.com. sa tomas morato ang shop nila, mababait sila dun at madaming gamit pero cash basis lang lahat.
im looking for a wider glider and Fluid surf pintail or pintail with cuts. 2 kami ng tropa ko na dadag dag sa populasyon ng longboarding. Sana makakuha kami ng mas mura. Thanks
Hi noob here, I recently had my board, a Ladera Floyd w/Randall 180s and 70mm Earthwing wheels, I'm around 150-160lbs., when I ride my board in a hill at home and I turn it either to left or right, my board makes a gripping sound, even my wife a 120lbs. notice the sound.
Is this wheel bite we're experiencing. I have tried to remedy it with tightening the trucks screw and WD40 but I still hear the creeks.

Any recommendations/suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Hope to ride with you all soon.

Your bearings may be old / dirty. I get the same noise from time to time (specially with bearings w/ metal shields as these tend to dent and rub against the balls). Just clean them or replace them and you should be fine. Use WD40 sparingly and never on your bearings. If there's still noise after that, take your trucks apart and clean 'em.
On a side note, let's keep this thread relevant, perhaps next time you can post in a more relevant section so you can get optimal feedback to your question(s)
Thanks will do that, just want to ask fellow Pinoy, some forum people at the Q&A are snotty and viciously irritated with seemingly stupid noob questions.
